Enjoy a Cozy Winter Night In: Things to Do in Your Smoky Mountain Cabin

After a busy winter day full of attractions and outdoor activities, settle down for a relaxing evening in your Smoky Mountain vacation cabin. Enjoy all the luxurious amenities, like in-cabin movie theaters, game rooms, and hot tubs. Try these ideas for a cozy night in!   

Play Games

Whether you’re a property mogul in Monopoly, or a genius detective in Clue, a quiet evening is the ideal time to get your game on! Finding a truly relaxed time for family game night can be tough at home. Take advantage of your Smokies vacation to reconnect by playing together.

Make Yummy Comfort Food

Your cabin offers a fully equipped kitchen. Just add groceries and before you know it, you’re making rich comfort foods your family loves. Try this recipe for creamy mac and cheese. Everyone will love making an individual brownie-in-a-mug for dessert–here’s how

Shoot Pool

Challenge the family to a lively game of pool. Never played? Look up the rules and give it a whirl! 

Play Video Games

What’s this, glowing in your cabin’s game room or loft? It’s an old-school video game console, like the ones you used to play on at the arcade when you were a kid! Pick a cabin with a game console loaded with classics like Pac-Man and Donkey Kong.

Soak In the Hot Tub

Your cabin’s outdoor hot tub is the best of both worlds: Jets of bubbling water soothe your muscles and keep you warm, while you breathe the crisp, fresh air.

Relax By the Fireplace

A crackling fire banishes winter’s chill and sets the mood for romance. After a day of hiking frosty trails, there’s nothing like toasting your toes in front of a fireplace. 

Watch Movies or Stream Shows

Smokies cabins come with the latest TVs in bedrooms and living spaces. You’re never far from a spot where you can slip away and binge that series you’ve been meaning to watch. If you’re a movie buff, our cabins with movie theaters give you dedicated viewing spaces with cinema seating, large screens, and top-notch audio. 

Catch Up on Reading

Curl up on a plush chair or stretch out on a sofa, book in hand. No interruptions here. Just you, a hidden nook, and time to read uninterrupted.
